Lan - 2 PCs, internet access works only for main pc

Hello guys, I have set up LAN (pc+notebook). I can access Internet from PC, but i cannot from notebook (notebook is connected to internet through main pc by RJ-45 Ethernet cable). When i shut down ZoneAlarm on main

Sorry for the delay. On your desktop ZoneAlarm, go to Firewall &gt; Zones and create an entry for your laptop, set the IP to that of the laptop, and set the Zone to Trusted. See if that works.

I should have mentioned: to get the IP address of your laptop:On the laptop, go to Start &gt; Run, enter &quot;cmd&quot; (without the quotes) and press Enter. then enter the command &quot;ipconfig /all&quot; without quotes. The entry &quot;IP Address&quot; is what you want to enter in ZoneAlarm.
